after my shopping trip and spending most of last night looking for dresses on the net i'm seeing alot of coral.
and it's not a colour you usually see.

yes, unfortunately

JeanPoole · 18/03/2009 08:51

why don't you like it anyfucker or doesn't it suit you?

its a bit "young" for me, but also curiously middle-aged

does that make sense?

I think it is a difficult colour to wear and only suitable for very hot summer days

but then, my wardrobe mostly consists of grey, beige, navy, denim and white and I hate bright or primary colours, they make me look washed out

how old ar you then? if you don't mind me asking

what sort of hair/skin colouring do you have?

it makes me look hideous. i do like that bight blue though, have a top on today.

I look awful in coral. I know what you mean about young or middle aged or very hot days. But some people can pull it off. I dont know the rules though must be all about colouring or something. I just know it isnt me!

JeanPoole · 18/03/2009 09:13

i think it might suit the darker haired darker skinned varieity.
more

ie me.

vile colour

AnyFucker · 18/03/2009 19:16

sorry jean for late reply, have been out clothes shopping

have kept a safe distance from any coral though

I am early 40's, auburn hair and medium colouring

perhaps the auburn hair clashes with coral, although I am a natural mouse

I bought a fab coral cardigan with stars all over it from H&M.

AnyFucker · 18/03/2009 20:11
